2016 NBA Rookie Ladder: Who Has The Most Trade Value?
7. Stanley Johnson, Detroit Pistons
Johnson is the more interesting small forward between him and Winslow because of what he’s shown on offense. He has all the potential to become everything that Winslow can on defense, but offensively Johnson’s on another level at this point in their careers.
He’s shown off a decent three-point shot and midrange scoring package and he’s strong enough to finish inside after contact.
Johnson can score with the best of his peers when he’s locked in and eventually that will be more often than not.
In terms of trade value he means a lot right now to the Pistons because he’s their most talented player at that position with respect to Marcus Morris. He’ll have the starting spot in due time and will continue to grow into one of the league’s top two-way wings.
Trade Value: Moderate to High
Next: Next John Wall?
